Earth is now just a golf club for space billionaires.
It’s not just you or the sites you visit. A huge part of the internet went down earlier tonight, and everything from entertainment providers to video services to news sites were impacted. It appears (though this hasn’t been 100% confirmed) that an outage at Fastly, the CDN (Content Delivery Network) provider that powers…well, a huge…
Barcelona and France striker Antoine Griezmann is currently getting ready to try to win Euro 2020 with his national side, but on the way to the tournament he’s been showing off his skills in a different game: Football Manager, where he’s been doing very well indeed. Here’s Griezman, laptop out in mid-air, boasting that his…
Olympus 2027, a famous Fallout 2 mod that completely replaces the original game with a new setting and storyline, is now finally available to play for those of us who can’t read a word of Russian. Olympus is centred around…Olympus, an enormous tower in Silicon Valley that becomes a fortified haven for surviving billionaires. It…
It was very exciting to hear back in 2019 that Homeworld 3 was in development. The news was tempered a little at the time, though, by a very strange investment-based crowd-funding scheme that was attached to the project, despite the fact the game was being bankrolled by Gearbox, a major publisher. It wasn’t a traditional…
The ESA has officially killed and buried E3, so let’s look back at the show’s brightest moments
While most city-builders pitch themselves as something idyllic, all blue skies and green grass, the upcoming Terra Nil for the PC goes in a slightly different direction, giving you a world that has suffered environmental collapse then asking you to clean it up a bit. It’s still got green grass, of course, but your job…
DLSS, a technology I do not want to understand because then it will no longer feel like magic, has until now been available only to folks playing Windows games. Thanks to some work from Valve and Nvidia, though, that’s about to change. As The Verge reports, Nvidia announced last week that it is working with…
And it’s got nothing to do with stealth! SCHiM is an upcoming game for the PC where you’re playing a human soul that moves like a frog (stick with me), and the entire thing is about navigating a landscape touching only the shadows. Sometimes the shadows are stationary, at other more challenging times they’re cast…
Welcome to tonight’s instalment of “Video Game Art”. Thank you, this has been tonight’s instalment of “Video Game Art”.
Similar to the “Gamer” tributes from 2020, Nike is launching a new line of sneakers called Nike And The Mighty Swooshers, which is going to be based entirely around anime. The shoes won’t be specifically licensed; again, like the “Gamer” sneakers, they’ll just be inspired generally by Japanese animation, though look close enough (at things…
A combination of pandemic-driven shortages and the planet’s increasingly gruesome fascination with crypto-mining means it’s hard getting your hands on a new graphics card at the moment. And if you were wondering just how hard, look at this line-up—and resulting crush of humanity—outside a Micro Center store in Dallas. The video below, captured by PrestonALewis,…
PlayStation is normally pretty savvy when it comes to high-profile fashion collaborations, but this latest partnership with luxury label Balenciaga, consisting of a t-shirt and hoodie that both cost more than an actual PlayStation 5, is dumb. While luxury labels dipping their toes into this popular culture/streetwear stuff is nothing new, the extraordinary prices being…
Does anyone remember March 2021, when some techbros and artists were convinced that NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) were going to change the world? Well hi, it’s now June 2021 and the bubble has burst. I know, I am surprised as you are. Despite clear evidencethat the entire thing was “at best a scam and at worst…
Nintendo just announced plans to take one of its old production facilities in Japan and turn it into the “Nintendo Gallery,” a place to “showcase the many products Nintendo has launched over its history.” The Uji Ogura Plant, located in Uji (just outside of Kyoto), was built all the way back in 1969, and has been…
For years now, Super Mario Bros. The Movie Archive has been workingto obtain and restore a bunch of deleted scenes from Nintendo’s 1993 disaster. That work is now largely done, leaving us with a sort of “director’s cut” of the film that runs for 20 minutes longer than the original. Super Mario Bros: The Morton…
